Chapter 13: The Arrogant Arms Dealer

"I want to see your commander, isn't that what your rebels call it? I am French, and I am the agent of the French Foreign Trade Company in Vietnam in charge of all the commerce and trade of Yunnan Province in the Qing Dynasty. ”

Standing in front of Huang Zhongting, a middle-aged foreigner in a black suit, with a big beard, about forty years old, pointed at Huang Zhongting and shouted, his arrogant face made Huang Zhongting not want to talk to him.

"You little brat, call your adults out, the hair hasn't grown, don't delay Lao Tzu's time, hurry up." Seeing that Huang Zhongting did not move, the Frenchman continued to yell at Huang Zhongting.

Li Desheng, who was standing next to him, with several guards and a staff department, did not make any movement without Huang Zhongting's instructions, and all looked at the French in front of him roaring like monkeys.

In fact, this Frenchman understands that the group of people in front of him is different from the group of officials he was dealing with the Qing Dynasty before, and he also knows what the rebel army is and what the purpose of the rebel army is, but because he is French, he doesn't care how you rebel army and the Qing court fight, and because he is French, who dares to touch him with this identity.

He only cares about interests, as the agent of the responsible party of the French foreign trade company, he needs benefits for his own country, and he needs to take real money from this country in order to be promoted and rich.

But in Huang Zhongting's eyes, the French in front of him made him a little surprised, just with those few Chinese words, simple with a little simple swearing, that is a word that will only be commonly used in the new century, he is a Frenchman of this era can straighten the tongue of Chinese It is very good, admiration and admiration.

But whether to ignore it or not, just watch him perform alone, Huang Zhongting doesn't want to get used to him.

At this moment, Wu Ruolan, who was originally strolling around the back garden with Huang Zhongting, walked over, carefully looked at the French foreigner in front of her, and her eyes began to show surprise.

"Wow, Uncle Fillman, I can see you here." As she spoke, she ran over and hugged the Frenchman, whose name was Uncle Fillman.

The Frenchman who was giving a passionate speech was stunned by this hug at first, and only after seeing it clearly did she make sure that she knew the beautiful girl in front of her, not only did she know it, but she was very familiar with it.

"Oh, Miss Ruolan, why are you here, oh my God, what happened, Miss Ruolan, did they arrest you, don't worry, uncle will take you back to Vietnam, they don't dare to do anything to you."

Unexpectedly, Huang Zhongting didn't expect that these two would know each other, thought about it for a while, and had a plan in his heart.

"What is the name of this gentleman, I am friends with Miss Ruolan, my name is Huang Zhongting, and I have the final say on the land at the mouth of the river." Huang Zhongting is also a little arrogant.

The Frenchman immediately gestured to Wu Ruolan to make sure that she was Wu Ruolan's friend.

Wu Ruolan nodded: "Zhongting is not only my friend, but also my savior. ”

After speaking, the Frenchman in front of him immediately put away his arrogance. "My name is Firmman, little brother Huang, thank you very much for saving our Miss Ruolan."

The strength of the Wu family is unique in the whole of Vietnam, even the Nguyen family, who ruled Vietnam at that time, did not have the financial resources of their Wu family, and the current French governor in the Vietnamese colony also attaches great importance to the Wu family, and the agent of his small foreign trade company naturally wants to tie up the Wu family, but there is no chance, and saving Wu Ruolan in disguise this time can be regarded as a great achievement.

"Miss Ruolan, wait and go back to Vietnam with me, I can also take care of Miss Ruolan on the way, and then trouble Little Brother Huang to send someone to send us to the border." Firmman said slowly.

"Okay, I'll go back with you, but I'm not in a hurry at this time, I think Brother Zhongting may have a little business to discuss with Uncle Firmman." Wu Ruolan turned her smart eyes to look at Huang Zhongting, at such an age, she began to take over the family's business, this bit of cleverness is still there, squinting at Huang Zhongting with big eyes like a crescent moon and grinning: "Yes, Brother Zhongting." ”

"Well, since you are so familiar with Ruolan, then you are not an outsider, you do have a small business that I want to talk to you about, you also know what we are doing, and you know what you need the most, this is what I want to talk about, I don't know if I can talk about it?"

Originally, Huang Zhongting was very uninterested in this foreigner, but since he was so familiar with Ruolan, he didn't care about Ruolan for the sake of Ruolan's face.

Fillman listened to the mustache rubbing his short, thickly curly lips and pondered for a moment.

Of course he knows what this little kid in front of him is doing with a group of people, that is, the rebels, what he needs most is, of course, weapons, he is selling weapons, he can sell them to the Qing court and these rebels, anyway, he is making money.

"I know that Little Brother Huang wants to buy some weapons, right, but weapons are more expensive, I don't know what you want, how much you need, the important thing is that there is so much money, and the money must be real money?" Firmman felt that he could sell weapons to these people, but to determine the problem of money, it was impossible for them to think of empty gloves white wolves.

Huang Zhongting said in his heart: "Made, they are all vampires, and before they said what to buy, they started to talk about money." ”

However, as a later generation, he understood that the foreigners and arms dealers at this time were making some real money in China, and other people did not look down on them.

Huang Zhongting clapped his hands, and immediately a team of soldiers from the guard company came in carrying more than a dozen large boxes.

Firmman suddenly came to his senses when he saw it, looking at the soldier who was carrying the box, he was a little difficult to walk, and then looked at the big wooden stick carrying the box, all of which were bent, which showed that the contents of the box were very heavy.

Secretly sighed: "Could it be that this small rebel army is really rich, and the box is either real money or big stones." ”

In his heart, Huang Zhongting's anti-Qing rebel army was a rebel army.

"But with the rebels, there will be wars, and wars will require weapons and wealth." Firmman thought happily as he looked at the box in front of him.

"Open it." Under Huang Zhongting's atmospheric order, the antique lobby suddenly had a different color of money.

"Flash your titanium alloy dog eyes, Lao Tzu has never seen so much gold and silver jewelry in his previous life and half of his life combined." Huang Zhongting silently looked at Firmman's shocked eyes.

Firmman looked at the gold and silver jewelry in the box in shock, and quickly calculated in his mind, "Eight boxes of gold and silver, three boxes of jewelry, jade and jade, a box of gold and silver is roughly estimated to be no less than 80,000 silver dollars, and a box of jewelry, jade and jade is not less than 100,000 silver dollars, so the contents of these boxes are no less than 900,000 silver dollars, this is a big deal." ”
